John Burns with FASTSIGNS® of Pittsburgh-City/South, recently completed the 2019 Sales Boot Camp at FASTSIGNS International, Inc.’s headquarters in Carrollton, Texas.
Burns has been with the center since 2018 and came with a solid foundation in both sales and sales management experience. His experience has included working in sales in the automobile industry before transitioning into a managerial role. After this, he worked for The Art Institute of Pittsburgh, managing a team of 16 recruiters. Burns then took a role as an insurance agent before coming to FASTSIGNS.
“The best and most useful part was meeting people in different markets and talking about different projects they had worked on, sharing tips and experiences with different vendors,” said John Burns, Outside Sales Representative at FASTSIGNS® of Pittsburgh-City/South.
With a blended training approach of pre-work assignments, a rapid fire prospecting campaign, inter-active role play and classroom instruction by seasoned sales professionals, Sales Boot Camp provides the tools needed to develop well-prepared and energized employees to build sales and profits. “For someone new to sales in general, this is a must,” said Barbara Belle-Plutko, franchisee at Pittsburgh/City - South. “For someone with a sales background it is useful to remember the basics sometimes. The industry specific areas to target is really useful.”
